Backyard Skills

Natural Dyes (Deep Dive) (Workshop)

Join us for a daylong journey into natural dyeing using both the classical historical dyes and some surprising new ones. The group will work with prepared materials such as yarn and fabric provided by Botanical Colors. As an added bonus, we will journey to The Ecology Center dye gardens to gather seasonal dyestuffs from the local landscape to add to our palette. All levels welcome. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes, and dress to be outdoors for a period of time. This is a physically active class, as we will be carrying dye pots and buckets, lifting, bending, twisting, walking, and working around a heat source.
Tickets available on our website are $90 for members and $110 for non-members. The proceeds support our non-profit eco-educational programs.
